As the internet debates the pros and cons of AI, Gore Verbinski’s outrageous action comedy Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die is not afraid to take sides. And while some filmmakers (like Darren Aronofsky) are all too happy to toy with this technology, this movie has major beef with the rise of artificial intelligence.
Written by Matthew Robinson (The Invention of Lying), Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die stars Sam Rockwell as a time traveler who crashes into a Los Angeles diner looking for a motley crew to help him stop the rise of an AI tyrant. Joining him in his quest are a pair of high school teachers, played by Zazie Beetz and Michael Peña, who’ve learned the hard way not to get between their students and their cell phone addictions.
In a virtual interview, Mashable Entertainment Editor Kristy Puchko asked Rockwell, Beetz, and Peña about what apps have them addicted to their phones and what the future of AI in filmmaking is as they see it.
Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die is now playing in theaters.
